I'm late getting these posted, but these are my photos of the eclipse last week. Taken from my back deck. Froze my toes.
Nature laughs or maybe cries at the plans of man
3:20pm heavy clouds at peak
5:20pm sunny skies
Birds, relatively quiet at peak and noisy afterwards
Squirrels, well they are squirrels so no change
Rabbit, even more confused than usual
1932

I walked outside and saw that it was dark... inside on the floor, I saw little eclipse images! (filtering through the wistaria bush)
Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer
Pages 689
Okay, let me start off by saying, this is one long complicated series. If you have not read the previous 2 books of the Twilight series, please read no further, this review may contain spoilers.
This is a long book, and Stephenie Meyer paints a vivid picture in all of her books. She has the art to keep you captured and up long into the night with her facinating stories.
Well, our dear friend Edward Cullens went on a hiadus for a few months and now he's back in the picture. Problem is, Vampires and wearwolves go together like... Toothpaste and orange juice (ha ha, now your gonna try it!). Jacob became a crucial part of Bella's life in New Moon, and now that Edward is back, this really breaks his heart. There's also a new breed of vampires attacking the north, and Alice can't get the visions clear. The Vamps and Wolves must work toghether to tame this threat.
Does the Voultri know that Bella's not a vampire yet? And why haven't they come to help? Will Charlie ever eccept Edward into his family? Will Jacob find rest after all his tourmoil?
I personally found myself captivated yet again. I love Stephenie's story telling abilities. I've heard several people complain that "Thats not what a vampire should be." Well my answer is... "how would you know?" The vampires of these books may not resemble the mosters of Nosferatu or Dracula, and they are born from legends and people's imagination. (My personal favorite Vampire is 'Count Duckula'). I also didn't like the way Bella just forgot what Edward did to her and toss Jacob aside like a used coffee cup. She should have really laid into him for at least the first part of the book, but thats just me being mean.
Overall, a good read and good for people looking to escape into the life of fantasy.
This is an in-camera reflection that shows the eclipse in an interesting way. Pretty cool, the kids loved it.
So much light caused reflections within the camera generating the duplicate image. Taken May 1994 near Detroit MI.
From the Lunar Eclipse this past Fall. It somehow reminds me of "The Future" as viewed from the perspective of the 1950's.
Didn't have the best conditions to view the Eclipse, with it being cloudy. Clouds broke at the start of the Eclipse, then closed in, then broke again toward peak of the Eclipse.
Not much processing or consideration here... but it was a great treat to see the eclipse was visible to Lawrence, Kansas this evening...
I hope your weekend passed was great and a great start to next week!
